★☆☆☆☆
A book for people with lots of money
This book was really quite disappointing. The idea presented is quite simple (how to place landscaping for the greatest impact), but the illustrations and landscapes presented are very unusual. Do you live in a desert? They have a desert landscape in there, just in case you do. Mountain views? Probably not! Mountain stream running through? Most of the yards in this book are extraordinary before someone even begins to put in bushes and flowers. This is not a book for the average person with an average-to-smallish yard and a budget.
